My mom never answers the phone anymore. I call her on Alexa.

I reckon that's a thought.

I tended to OD on some bands at some times of my life. Some were attractions/concessions and others were because I only had a few tapes and that's what I owned so I played it/them to death. Now that money isn't an issue, I listen to a wide range of stuff set on shuffle.


Toys picked up. Dr. Tyler declined to answer her fucking phone. Quelle surprise.

At what level priority are you? I know I'm at about level 4 for answering priority.

Apparently, not high enough. I should be higher priority than the prezzidunt. She did answer this afternoon, so we now have 0900 for grocery time tomorrow.

Oh man…that’s a tough one. I tend to OD on bands at different times over my lifetime. I go in phases and looking back, I’ll associate those phases with good times or bad. Certain bands will trigger those thoughts about an old flame etc…

We are kindred spirits!

In high school, I thought The Who were the greatest band ever.

Then it was all punk rock.

Then in my early 20s it was the who again.

Then I proclaimed that the holy trinity of bands that were all better than the Beatles: the who, The Kinks and the Small Faces.

Some time in the late 80s I thought the Leaving Trains were the greatest band in America.

In the 90s I thought Blur was the best band on the planet.

Early 2000s - it was Squeeze. I proclaimed them better than the Beatles.

Then i got into Spoon. “The best rock band of all time.”

In the early teens, I was so into westbound train.

Then Tom Waits!

Somewhere in the mid teens I was cuckoo for The Duke Spirit.

The Aggrolites, the pietasters, hub city stompers when I went on a ska kick.

Somewhere in there, maybe the teens, I was really into the hives. I think we saw them like seven or eight times. And there were Street Dogs.

I’m pretty opinionated about music and who is the best band in the planet. I guess it just depends which way the wind blows.

Village trick or treat tonight. I am tired and it is cold.

For some reason, I've been a day ahead all week.

You should see my biorhythms, or lack thereof!

 

[Boat1]

I've caught up again. For the moment. Been busy painting this week. Yesterday I did my nails. Halloween nails:

Today I finished the stenciling in the powder room. I need to finish cleaning up in there and then can start moving things back in. When I get it done, I'll post some pics.

Have a good weekend everyone! We have an atmospheric river visiting us so my girl and I are just gonna hibernate! 🌬🌧

️

VERY NICE!!!

As a little kid, I used my lawn mowing $$$ for the Sabbath double album
"We Sold Our Soul For Rock 'N Roll"

I remember a rainy day in 3rd grade... we had to stay inside for recess.
My teacher said my album (The Alice Cooper Show) was "inappropriate."

 

[Boat1]

G'night all... I hope everyone's having a great weekend!

 

[Boat1]

Glad you made it home safe and sound, @subdudeme13 I hope you had a good trip! Now, get your ass to work!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Get some sleep.


Got a nap in.


Got 12K steps in and some exercise. Two more full days and the rest of today.

Time too clear up the walnuts from the neighbors tree

It'll be in the low 40s in the morning.


The furnace has run off and on today.


TDK has a routine in the bedroom. When she hears the furnace fan kick in, she runs over and gets up on the top of the bookcase. The heat registers are near the ceiling and the warm air blows across the ceiling towards the bookcase. She knows this, having figured it out.

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

It’s been cold all week. This morning we had frost on the front lawn.

 

[RjR3_1954]

Brrrrrrr

It's cold tonight in Ohio @Missk_2022

Finally slowing down for the day. Had to work on the pole saw to prepare for knocking some trees down. The chain wouldn't move on the bar. Turns out bar oil weeped into the driveshaft, and that's too sticky. (Note to self, store it with the bar down, not up!) Spent the morning cleaning up, and then a trip to town for parts/gas/food. Now the pole saw works, but it was getting dark by the time everything was back together and other projects were done. So tomorrow it shall be.

This last batch of apples are tasting awfully good, and I manage to chew on one for almost every meal of the day. The smarter half has been making canned spiced apples, salsa, and apple sauce. I'm hoping for a pie and a crumble in there too.

Evening was spent picking away on a long term car project. Darned near the whole evening on one connector and cable combination. Takes a freeking PHD to sort all that shit out.

And, why did the freeze less wall hydrant that froze last winter have to be an 11" long faucet? Everyone makes 6,8,10,12, and 14". Not an 11". Try finding one of those bastards!

Snow's a comin'!


Anyway, going to wind down and be lazy for the rest of the evening. Maybe even have another apple!

This is excellent use of money. A good investment.

your teacher was wrong.

It’s entirely appropriate for third graders to be rebellious, questioning authority, bucking trends and sticking it to the man.

Few things are actually more American.

Mindless conformity and keeping up with the joneses is not only uncool…

It’s unamerican!

I reckon that's a thought.

I’ve got her house connected to mine via Alexa.

Weird thing in the grocery store. I’m still getting used to not shopping for my dad as well as the rest.
The store music was Barry Manalo, but over never the fine cheese area, it was Jethro Tull!
